Heartfelt Care from pet parents/passionate professionals
Ashley Beard, DVM, CCRT
Dr. Beard’s life is straight out of a storybook: a farm girl surrounded by critters, dreaming of becoming a vet. She worked with her horses’ vet in high school, then left Monmouth County for Loyola University and Tufts. After a brief NYC adventure, she settled in New Jersey.
Dr. Beard’s passion for animals is clear. She specializes in senior care and chronic pain management, inspired by her three differently abled cats. Dedicated to rescue work, she ensures pets live comfortably in their forever homes. Outside the clinic, she and her husband Joe enjoy hiking, exploring new restaurants, and snuggling with their cats.

Kira Purdon, DVM, CVA
Dr. Purdon’s journey to becoming a veterinarian is nothing short of inspiring. Leaving her Florida hometown for Northeastern University, she found herself volunteering at a Boston animal shelter, sparking her passion for veterinary medicine. Realizing animals needed a voice, she pursued her dream at Cornell’s Veterinary School, focusing on emergency medicine, surgery, and senior pet care.
With her doctorate and the energy from her shelter days, Dr. Purdon finds joy in helping animals. She transitioned to Jersey City to build lasting relationships with pets and their owners. When not at work, she’s diving, cuddling with her rescue pets, or enjoying family time with her husband and new babies.
